Until now, I've posted my earlier works, where I was still experiencing and I wasn't producing a large number of gifs yet. As explained, it was because I still hadn't joined any board for specific series (except Shuffle when it was almost over). I think that not much of the gifs posted until now could actually bring back memories to the readers

It can be said that my activity level skyrocketed when a certain new series began on that period.

§ Fate/stay night might be considered my very first large scale project, so yup, it was a big help for me. And also a lot of fun

§ This one was quite simple, but the series didn't offer much as gif-material:

§ This one instead is probably the most complicated avatar I have ever made.

I wanted to recreate the effect of a photosession, but in the anime it was slightly different, she was just spinning left and right. Above all, I had to invent a loop! As a side problem, there were 33 frames to fit into 50 Kb (hence the reason it's not 100x100, probably the only non 100x100 avatar I've ever used here).
By the way, I'll never forget a comment KiNA made about that avatar

In REC, Aka was a fan of Audrey Hepburn. The anime offered a few tributes to the immense belgian actress, by showing some poses of Aka taken from actual Hepburn's movies. I turned them into avatars and took the time to identify them ---> Roman Holiday

---> Funny Face

---> Breakfast at Tiffany's

---> How to Steal a Million

---> My Fair Lady

---------------------------

After my most complicated avatar, one of my absolute favourites.

§ Silly Karin

Nothing to say, I still love this one quite a lot ^^

§ And since we're talking of Karin

§ This update ends with an avatar that I made but I'm not sure if I used it. Maybe, but if so, not more than a few days

Man the F/SN ones are awesome. I remember when I first joined AS I was browsing the gif req thread in that forum and I was like man...those are awesome

btw Im snagging the other Hagi one from page 2

Thank you ^_^ , please go ahead

well..I love FSN in general. But those GIFs are a god send
Love that one ^^

I dont spot any gilgamesh though, that makes me sad

Thanks. Yeah, that gif was popular. I used it as avatar for a while then I left it freebie. It is certainly the avatar of my creation used by the highest number of different people in here
As for Gil, didn't like him much. One gif of him is in this update, but I don't know if I have more.

No it wasn't mentioned but it's pretty simple. The starting point is this thread (Particularly the first post for a beginner level)
Advanced levels from intermediate to superpro are available on this other thread where our tag-goddess Cats sorted out a wonderful index of all the subjects contained there ^^ .
But.. my advice is .. to stick to the first link for a while, until you get a bit of practice

Yup I also like Sarah ^^ , too bad they had to change her seiyuu for the second season. When a character starts with a voice, that should never change.

You're saying it as it were normal j/k

§ As said, I don't do static signatures (unless they are crop jobs). That's because I suck am no good at it.
There's just one and only static signature that I've used here, and it is the living proof of why it was better for me to give up ^^

Ilya from Fate/stay night

§ Time Digression II (February 2007) : other than Rozen Maiden, I made static avatars of other series for the site:

I can only guess it is the experience. If you watch my first gifs, the timing was far from being perfect, while if you watch the gifs that came after Fate/stay night (when I'll post them), I believe that a slow improvement can be seen, at least to my eyes
I can only suggest to download the gifs that you deem as "well timed" and to check their times, to have a wider answer.

What do you mean by "perfect". Is it the cropping? A normal rule that I use is to crop in a way that the character's eyes are always at the center of the picture.
If the character moves his head, then the eyes have to be centered on the frame when he's looking the camera (a frame which I usually set with the highest timing).
If it's an action gif (meaning that they spin all around), usually cropping in the middle will do. If not, manually adjust it as your eye suggests.

Not sure if I got your question right, but at least, those are the simplest tips I could give
